Awaiting to be lifted from our own despair
We have forgotten to acknowledge
That happiness is giving more,
Not looking elsewhere.
–
We have abandoned ourselves,
Out of desire to be rescued
Instead of rescuing ourselves
Through th’other that awaits the rescue.
–
The cries for help were overshadowed
A wall of inner screaming
That we’ve created so that we
Are insulated from its meaning.
–
To insulate though we have failed,
Through emotions’ isolation
We only managed to destroy,
What we have thought for all this time;
–
A life of greater feelings.
